Window and Door Measurement Guide

Window and door requests are easier to route when the first message includes clear photos, opening counts, rough measurements, hardware notes, and whether the issue is comfort, damage, access, security, or weather exposure.

Photograph the whole opening and the problem area

Send one photo from far enough back to show the full window or door, then close-up photos of damaged frames, failed seals, glass, screens, thresholds, locks, hinges, trim, and weatherstripping.

For exterior openings, include photos from both inside and outside when practical. The surrounding wall, trim, siding, and threshold often matter as much as the opening itself.

Use rough measurements for the first review

Exact ordering measurements may require a separate review, but rough width, height, count, and swing direction can help determine whether the request is simple repair, replacement review, or part of a larger scope.

  • Approximate width and height of each opening
  • Number of matching windows, screens, or doors
  • Door swing direction and whether it is exterior or interior
  • Screen damage, missing hardware, lock issues, or sticking points
  • Any water staining, soft trim, drafts, daylight, or threshold damage

Describe the real reason for the request

A damaged opening, inspection item, draft, security concern, rental turnover, weatherization issue, or maintenance-plan review can point to different next steps.

If the property is remote, include road, gate, tenant, animal, and timing constraints before the request is reviewed for Harney County route fit.
